Nerdlocker's Guide to Black Friday Deals 2010

It’s finally that time of year again, Nerdlings! Black Friday is upon us!

Now, Black Friday is my favorite holiday (inb4: Christmas iz da best) and what makes it the best is the anticipation and planning put into this very special time of year (not the over-commercialization and greed exemplified by needy Americans.)

There’s nothing like waking up at 3 am to line up at your local Walmart for a $100 46″ Panasonic LCD computer monitor that doubles as a TV only to find out that the Soccer Mom that pushed you down with her oversized purse two aisles ago, has the last one in her cart! Aw well, I guess you’ll have to settle for a $5 copy of Tyler Perry’s Greatest Hitz.

Lucky for you Nerdlocker viewers, we are compiling all of the leaked ads now so that you can plan your Soccer Mom-pushing morning accordingly. So get your kids out of bed, grab a Pop Tart and get ready to rumble!

THIS IS MADNESS….THIS….IS…..BLACK FRIDAYYYYYYYYYYY…..

———————————————————————————————————————————————-

Best Buy opens at 5 am, but campers are known to spend the night outside, so don’t expect to snatch up any of these deals unless you bring a tent and a toaster oven.

Toys R Us stores are opening at 10am this year so you can probably snatch a few deals at other stores before hitting up these deals, you Toys R Us Kid you.

I thought Sears had closed years ago, but apparently they’re still open and are offering Black Friday deals on Thanksgiving. If you can take the Turkey leg out of your mouth long enough to get down there, they will open at 7am.

This is the ad that I am most excited for because Target is usually where I do all of my Black Friday shopping. I usually line up around 5am for their 6am opening, but it looks like they will be opening their doors at 4am this year! Looks like I’ll be getting my NBA Jam for $27 a little earlier than I thought.

Walmart’s ad has finally leaked online and it looks to have the best haul of video game deals. If you’ve been waiting to pick up COD: Modern Warfare 2, now’s the time to do it as it’s been marked down to ten dollars. Also, if you’ve waited this long to play it, Shewchuk is probably waiting at your house with a crowbar. Walmart opens at 5am this year.
